Join us on February 26th at Sugar Creek Brewing Co (in their private event space) for an inspiring, real-talk conversation all about using social media with intention, not just posting for the sake of posting.

Tricia is the founder of Hello Media, a boutique social media & creative agency rooted in radical transparency and strategy-first marketing.

A business owner since the age of 19, she brings nearly 15 years of real-world experience building, leading, and refining businesses, not from theory, but from doing the work.Known for her honest perspective on marketing, Tricia challenges industry noise, trends, and one-size-fits-all solutions in favor of clarity, alignment, and sustainable growth.

Her approach centers on human connection, thoughtful content strategy, and helping business owners build marketing systems they actually trust.

She lives in Charlotte, North Carolina with her husband and two daughters, and speaks openly about the intersection of business ownership, leadership, and life. Her work is grounded, honest, and deeply committed to helping business owners feel seen, capable, and confident in their decisions.
